This is Herding Goats story. 

John Drysdale,Charlie Drysdale,Anna Jacobs(now Drysdale),Simon Reekie,Edward Rust,Jane Readman,Flick Duff, Sue Jardine Paterson,Adelaide Knott are the team. "Herding Goats" because their organisation skills are slim. Weddings etc getting in the way.

They are Cycling Ride the North because they are firstly mad, secondly they love a challenge and thirdly they are firm supporters of The Sandpiper Trust and next year they hope to take Robin Maitland in a Rickshaw on the same route.
